Figure 11: Typical Daisy-Chain Connections

Connecting the DS351 to the Computer System

If the DS351 is the last device in a SCSI daisy chain, it will require the appropriate termination

(Figures 11 & 12).

The DS351 can be configured with two (2) external rear panel SCSI I/O connectors designed

for a single host (single-port) connection, or four (4) rear panel SCSI I/O connectors designed

for dual host (dual-port) connection.

The four (4) connector (dual-port) configuration permits two (2) separate host/daisy-chain

connections; some drives within the DS351 chassis can be connected to one host/daisy-

chain, and the remainder of the devices can be connected to a second host/daisy-chain (Figure

12).
